Station Hotel, Bruton Way, Gloucester, South West, GL1

Station Hotel is located in Gloucester city center, which is attracting substantial investment and redevelopment with over £200 million of development currently underway.

The hotel occupies a prominent roadside location on the A430 (Bruton Way) at the entrance to Gloucester Railway Station. Immediately in front of the property is the Gloucester Transport Hub, which is the city's main bus station, and the Forum development, delivering 108,000 sq ft of Grade A offices, a four-star hotel, a 398-space car park, retail, residential, and leisure facilities.

Beyond the Transport Hub and The Forum lies Kings Square, which has been regenerated into outstanding public open space, and to the west is the former Debenhams building, which is being refurbished by the University of Gloucestershire to provide education facilities for up to 4,000 students with associated services.

The city benefits from excellent public transport services, with fast and frequent train services to major UK cities from Gloucester Station, while the adjacent Travel Hub provides bus services locally and to Cheltenham, Chepstow, Hereford, Ross-on-Wye, Tewkesbury, and Stroud. National Express coaches go to Birmingham, Bristol, and London. In 2023, the railway station had an estimated 1,454,095 passengers. The annual average daily traffic flow on Bruton Way was recorded in 2023 to be 19,174.

Roadlinks are good; M5 junction 11a is 3.5 miles to the east, junction 11 lies 5 miles north east, and junction 12 is 6 miles to the south west of the city center.

The combination of rail and bus passangers, pedestrians, and high vehicular traffic puts this property in the epicenter of the city's pedestrian footfall.

Station Hotel is a landmark building occupying a prominent position, dominating the entrance to Gloucester Railway Station in the Kings Quarter. A purpose-built hotel constructed in 1880, this impressive Victorian building is arranged over basement, ground, first, and second floors with access points on Bruton Way and on the station approximation road.
The extensive basement area provides cellars, stores, and a bar area, with a commercial kitchen, bar, and private function room located on the ground floor. The upper parts of the building provide 20 large en-suite hotel rooms arranged over the first and second floors and a separate two-bed manager apartment. The rooms are served by gas-fired central heating and hot water systems located on the first and second floors.
